third person shooter – Gaming with Noobs

Hello everyone hows it going today i wanted to talk to you about dark light survivors but first huge thank you to the team over at Mirari&Co for sending me a copy of the game to try out its greatly appreciated so let’s dive in.

So Dark Light Survivors is a great game from what ive played so far its a rougelite with its own twist the game offers a good amount of upgrades to make your fight better but the best part is what makes this game unique you see more rougelites are all played top down view you go around blast monsters gain xp and level up with dark light you get both top down and 3rd person meaning you can switch between both views on the fly while your surviving now usually these games i always play them top down its how I enjoy the games but sadly with dark light survivors I noticed a lot of short comings with the top down so it was better for me to play in 3rd person. You see in other games you could shoot at a decent distance even before any upgrades with this one your shots would disappear at the 3 to 4 feet mark and thats before making any type of contact but in 3rd person mode it actually feels like your making better contact with them.

Another thing i saw was the map markers showing you where statues and chest are in top down view you get no indicators or anything but when you switch to 3rd person view you get a distance meter as well as actually being able to see them.

I know it sounds like im wailing on the game but im just showing some inconsistency it feels like the top down view was an after thought for the game instead of a fleshed out product.

Now like other rougelites when you level up your greeted by a deity from the dying world that grants you power this is also random but each deity gives you 3 choices for 1 element my favorite is always ice i like freezing monsters to give me some breathing room the electric powers were good but we’re heavy focused on melee and the fire was focused all around i feel there could be some work here as well to make it more in line with being even between ranged and melee attacks.

Now after each run in this dying world you return to your sanctuary to spend the coins you earn theres a store that unlocks relics for you to use and a store that also has new weapons and characters you can unlock as well after clearing there objectives to unlock.

So far there’s only 3 levels you can play through not sure when more will be added but the game has great potential and I enjoyed myself these types of games are great time killers as you never know how long a run will last but dark light survivors is out now on steam check them out and thank your for stopping by take care and game on
